Vind die 2e van rechts best oke

Those aren't DJ's

They are brands, producers at most.

nop... HHZ fortune is (was) EUR 102700 ... with Hardstyle, only Showtek can be rich

No surprise Tiësto has the most money. Commercial to the max!

HHZ is not on the list because hardstyle is nothing compared to other EDM genres!

I thought Marcel Woods would of been in that list. I hate most of them DJs.

Gostosa couldn't find her eye-liner while driving so she crashed that piece of junk.

Dacht ik ook gelijk. Zitten dan alleen weer geen tieten op.

Track sales would be key in this list. Atleast the top 15, some more aswell in the list, we're producing when most people still bought albums and tracks.

Edit: Would be a more interesting list if it were these 30 dj's earnings the last 5 years in contrary to their lifetime earnings.

Also Daft Punk, 30M each! Damn, and they haven't been active for so long.

Nouu dreetje

Daft Punk is een Frans house en electro-duo bestaand uit Thomas Bangalter en Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo. Als jonge artiesten werden ze midden jaren 90 plotseling bekend.

Inderdaad, pas echt bekend bij het publiek later in de jaren 90. Dus net als Tiesto, Paul van Dyk en noem maar op. En die draaien en produceren nog steeds. Iedereen begon begin jaren 90 van die DJ's bekend te worden..

dunno what the basis for this study... maybe is something like DJ MAg TOp 100

lookin with more attention to the list... some things doesnt make sence

it's weird for example... Pete Tong makes more money just DJing and playing at radio than Moby who's been around since the nineties...
Moby exploded on commercial sucess in 1999 with "Play" CD,, since then making concerts all over the world and also making new albuns.

13 Steve Aoki ($20 million)

releases just from 2009...is that big just DJing? earn more than the life-time guys like Guetta, Fatboy, Daft Punk, Chemical bros? lol

when i saw this news, i thought it was something credible, that s why i posted , but looking well... doesnt make sence at all

Also thought Carl Cox would of been up there as well. I personally think that the top 30 shown above wrong. Not all, just some.
Surly them big Radio 1 DJs are on top dollar. Then of course DJs that run their own events. For example, Eddie Wray (Local N.Ireland DJ) owned Planet Love. Not saying he should be in the list but surly there is DJs/Producers running major events and making top dollar. Above all, I do think Mr Tiesto is by far the riches DJ.
